Description of problem:
I chose Dvorak as my keyboard layout. When booting (nogui) I get the message
"Loading default keymap (Dvorak): failed". Even so, the keymap is correct after
booting. If I specify the absolute path to the keymap file, the message changes
from "failed" to "OK".
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
initscripts-7.34-1
How reproducible:
Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Choose Dvorak as your keyboard layout.
2. Reboot.
Actual Results: "Loading default keymap (Dvorak): failed"
Yet, the kaymapping is correct.
Expected Results: "Loading default keymap (Dvorak): OK"
Additional info:
My keyboard is a regular US keyboard with the keycaps moved to match the Dvorak
layout.
Under Red Hat 9.0 I have to use the absolute path to the Dvorak keymap file or I
would end up with the US keymap. The real problem seems to have been corrected
in Fedora Test 2, but the "failed" message still appears.
